If you hear “Error,” ask an adult to unplug Car Maker from the wall, wait ten seconds and then plug it back in to reset. Car Maker may automatically go into the cooling cycle. Do not unplug during this time. If you continue to hear “Error” after multiple resets, this may be an indication of a mechanical problem with the door switch; please contact Consumer Services via service.mattel.com for assistance.

Yes, for best results, allow the wax to cool for a few minutes before opening the mold. Twist the mold slightly (as you would an ice cube tray) to break the wax free. You can also run the mold under cold water, which will help speed up the cooling process. If the car body is wet, be sure to dry it completely before applying labels. Remove car body from the mold within 10 minutes. If the body is left in the mold for any longer, the wax may begin to crack.

Due to the technical nature of Power Wheels® products, some Power Wheels® parts may only be installed by our authorized service centers, therefore we’re unable to provide repair manuals or diagrams. Power Wheels® has independently owned and operated authorized service centers that carry replacement parts, batteries, and chargers in addition to repairing vehicles in or out of warranty. Our Service Center locator will assist you in finding one of our authorized service centers in your area as well as provide you website addresses for service centers that offer on-line shopping.

In the last few years we have seen a tremendous increase in the number of people interested in collecting Hot Wheels cars. Among collectors, some cars are more popular than others, which can make them more difficult to find. As a manufacturer, Mattel does not operate a complete customer sales department so our products are sold primarily through retail stores. However, please check out www.hotwheelsshop.com for some collectible items being sold there.

The Hot Wheels Car Maker Troubleshooting Guide will help with any questions that arise during the car making process.
|
First insert the flexible stencils into the frame with the built-in peg fitting. Connect the frame onto the four posts on top of the car decoration turntable, and then adjust the height of the frame for tall and low cars by using the two detent locations. Remember that in order to spray using stencil, the airbrush must face directly down over the top of the car and spray through the stencil.
|
- If you have inserted different colored wax sticks next to each other, you may get some color blending (in which the wax from the two adjacent sticks mix when creating the car body).
|
You should place the Apptivity Hot Wheels car on the screen in that location in order to play.
|
Do not place used batteries in your regular trash. Instead, return the battery to a federal or state approved lead-acid battery recycler. This may be a Power Wheels® Authorized Service Center or a local retailer of automotive batteries.

Once Car Maker instructs you to pull the handle, you must immediately pull it all the way down in one continuous motion until you hear “Complete.” For best results, DO NOT pump handle when pulling it down and complete the injection within 2-3 seconds. If you do not pull it all the way down to complete the injection, Car Maker will keep repeating the phrase, “Please pull down handle.”

Make sure the pen is fully inserted by pushing it all the way into the slot on the spray gun until you hear/feel it click. Start spraying with the nozzle adjuster pointed all the way toward the negative side (-) and, while holding the trigger down, slowly move the adjuster toward the positive side (+) until you get a nice even spray. If you’re still having issues, please refer to the troubleshooting section below.
|
Use the circular stencil tool to add detail to your artwork. First fully insert the pen until you hear/feel it click and adjust the spray nozzle until you get a nice even spray. Then plug the circular stencil tool directly onto the end of the airbrush tip. Rotate the stencil to select the artwork that you would like to apply. The art should be centered over the spray tip and applied to the car in close range.
